Hi,
So I was trying to find a GUI for playing Shogi on Ubuntu. I only found xshogi and xboard.
I saw that the xboard GUI looked better than the xshogi version, but I could not get xboard to simply start a shogi game.
This is what the "New Variant" dialog looks like:
I have absolutely no idea why Shogi is disabled, like many other options, not even Fisher Random Chess is enabled o0. I tried changing the values at the bottom of the dialog but nothing changed. I searched the web and couldn't find any forum post or anything describing the same issue. What is the cause for Shogi being disabled here? What do I need to do to enable it? I've read about other users playing Shogi using xboard so it shouldn't be too hard to get it running somehow.
